That Sangeeta dated Salman before she married cricketer Mohammed Azharuddin, is well-known. But she has always been on good terms with Salman’s family and has been a constant visitor to the family home at Galaxy Apartments at Bandstand.

She has been in Mumbai for the past few months but no one knows where she is living. A source says, “Not only did Sangeeta attend the music launch of Hello starring Salman, but also his birthday party at his farmhouse in Panvel last year.

Azharuddin did not attend that celebration. Thereafter, she has visited Salman’s house, irrespective of whether he was present or absent.

Even if Salman is not home, Sangeeta has always been comfortable in his house. She has a very good relationship with Salman’s parents, Salim and Salma Khan, and is exceptionally close to his sisters, Alvira and Arpita.

” Sangeeta’s strong bond with Salman’s family might seem misplaced, considering how bitter she was about her split with him. She didn’t forgive Salman for choosing Somy Ali over her.

Sangeeta was seething with such bad vibes then that she didn’t think twice before talking ill of Salman to the media. Salman, however, remained quiet through all that, as he didn’t feel bitter about Sangeeta’s caustic comments.

Why Salman broke up with Somy is another story. Apparently, she was pressurising him to marry her but Salman kept postponing it.

Somy ended the relationship and flew to Florida to be with her mother. Salman followed her there, pleading her to return but Somy stuck by her decision.

That he dumped a soft drink on her head at a discotheque might have played a part in her reticence to jump back into this relationship. Meanwhile, time did heal Sangeeta’s wounds.

A source describes her current equation with Salman, “They have a very healthy relationship. In fact, Salman has a very healthy equation with Somy too, who has been visiting his house as well.

” But Sangeeta shares a much deeper relationship with the actor, we are told. Interestingly, even Azharuddin used to accompany Sangeeta to Salman’s house.

“Azharuddin bonds very well with Salim. They talk a lot about cricket and even sat down to see some matches together,” says the source.

But now that Azhar’s marriage with Sangeeta has hit the rocks (supposedly after he started dating badminton champion Jwala Gutta, who, by the way, is half his age), let’s see if he’s able to maintain good relations with Salman’s family. Despite repeated calls and a text messages, Sangeeta remained unavailable for comment (less)
